You say you are using the OSS driver? Note that if you are using OSS on your system that you need to recompile SUNWgnome-audio, SUNWgnome-media, and perhaps SUNWgnome-media-apps pacakges to get them to build with OSS support. Do you have the same problem running /usr/dt/bin/sdtaudiocontrol? > 2) When attempting to play back CDs using the "CD Player" the CD is > recognised and you can select play, but no audio is heard. > > 3) When attempting to play back CDs or DVDs using /usr/sfw/bin/Totem then I > get the following error message > "An error occured > Could not determine type of stream." This is a GStreamer error... Again, I wonder if OSS might be having issues with GStreamer. Rebuilding the above packages to get GStreamer to recognize OSS might help. > Examining /vol/dev/aliases/cdrom0 is a link to /vol/dev/rdsk/c0t0d0/audio_cd > when playing CDs > This would indicate that the disk is identifed as an audio disk but the > reading of the cd results in a corrupted stream. > > Is the volume issue related to the OSS driver or to the application or both? > > Is there a patch which would fix the playback of audio cds for either CD > Player or Totem? Do you have similar problems using non-GNOME CD players? I forget, but I think there is a Motif one available in Solaris 10, either in /usr/bin or /usr/dt/bin.
